The old harbour east of the centre — bobbing yachts, antique shops, and a run of buzzing restaurants and late bars around the quays. A bit more local and grown-up than the old town, with Castle Hill rising between the two.

What you’re living next to if you stay here.
- 4.Castle Hill (Colline du Château) — The green headland between the old town and the port, where the castle once stood — climb (or take the free lift) for the postcard view straight down the curve of the bay and its blue water. A waterfall, a park, and the best sunset in the city.
- 11.Le Port & the quays — The photogenic old harbour, tall painted houses reflected in the water and yachts at the quay — antique shops by day, and some of the best restaurants and late bars in Nice by night. The local's evening, away from the old-town crowds.
